Vores værelse lå desværre lige ved siden af hovedindgangen til hotellet, vi kunne derfor høre folk gå ind og ud, og døren gå op og i, hvilket vækkede os adskillige gange i løbet af aften/natten. Samt kom der lastbiler der skulle aflæsse varer tidligt om morgenen, som vi også blev vækket af. På værelset var der lidt små beskidt på gulvet og der var sand på madrassen på den store seng, samt senge lampe på væggen sad ikke ordentligt fast, så den faldt ned adskillige gange. Personalet på stedet var dog rigtig flinke og søde. Og deres morgenmads buffet også god.

Prisbilligt alternativ til central overnatning

Fint centralt beliggende hostel centralt i Århus. Der er hvad der behøves, men heller ikke mere. Sengene er fine, vores værelse havde bad og det var fint - pænt og rent Køkkenet er meget lille, det er helt umuligt, hvis to skal lave mad samtidig. Jeg vil opfordre Danhostel til at opgradere her. I weekenderne er der en del støj fra gaden, men der er nok hvad man må forvente med den beliggenhed, ørepropper er anbefalet herfra. De ansatte gør et stort arbejde med at holde stedet rent og pænt, og personalet i receptionen er venlig og imødekommende.

Bang for your buck on brilliant location

The most wonderful, sweet and helpful staff. Brilliant location. I could even buy a parking spot overnight. I did book a double room with my own bathroom. Considering this is a Hostel, I really got bang for my buck. Of course it simple and not any extra additionally. But you don’t expect that knowing that you payed probably a third of what a regular hotel in Århus - High season - would charge. I’ll be back. Thanks you so much!

Nice, affordable stay at a very nice location. The only things not up to our expectations was the cleanliness of the kitchen and that the room was really hot and without the possibility of letting enough air in.

Værelset var fint, men toilet- og badeforhold kan med fordel opjusteres. Personalet var lidt emsige angående at forlade værelset klokken 11. Hvis man bedes forlade værelset klokken 10, bør det fremgå af vilkårene for opholdet.

Too hot - bad sleep

Room was awfully hot. That combined with no active cooling (which is pretty normal in Denmark) or option to open a window properly, due to a safety concern i guess, resulted in quite a bad nights sleep. We were there on a windy spring day with lots of sun (but not directly on the window), with low outside temperatures. The location is very central and noisy in the weekends. I can only imagine how warm the room must be on a hot summer day. Apart from being very hot, no option to open a window wide enough to cool it down, and noisy weekends, the room was fine and clean. Oh, the sink was nearly clugged aswell.
